Chapter 28: Test of Skills

"So let me get this straight. My father didn't just randomly picked you two just so that you can be our personal servant."

"But to also protect us?"

"Yep. That sum it up."

Yami and Atem stare at Yugi as Yugi crossed both his arms and his legs together; bored.

Yugi then sigh and said, "Is there any other questions that you want to ask?"

"Yes."

Yami is the one that spoke before asking, "Are you.....Moonlight?"

Yugi sadly smiled and said, "What do you think?"

Yami knew that answer already as he placed his hand over his eyes and sigh deeply.

'Then the game is already finished.'

"The game is not over, Prince Yami."

"What?"

Yami looked up at Yugi to see him smile.

"Did you just read my mind or something?"

"Yes. I did. I don't really know how or why it has happened, but what I do know is that we both have a connection. Same thing for Atem and Heba."

"Me?" Atem blinked.

"Yes. Now come. Since you now knew who we are. There's no point in keeping it hidden any longer. Heba was really irritated since you, Prince Atem, wouldn't stop suspecting us."

"Hey! I'm just making sure that you two wouldn't turn your back on us."

"We know that already. And we understand that."

Yugi pressed his hand on the burn symbol before chanting. The shelf moved once more as he gestured for the Princes to follow him. The Princes weren't so sure and looked at their father for some assistance. Akna nodded with encouragement.

"Do not worry. They are simply going to show you around their base. The next step will take place tomorrow."

"What tomorrow?"

"You'll see."

The brothers look at each other before following Yugi down a stair of steps. Torches lit themselves up as Yugi warned, "Watch your steps."

"Where does this lead to, Yugi?"

"Our training base."

"How is it possible. Is this an underground secret passage?"

"Yes. Your mother built it when the time for beings, like us, to come and train ourselves in order to protect our new generation of futures Pharaohs. It is our sacred ground which only can be known to those that we trust the most. Your mother was once a guardian to your father, Pharaoh Akna."

"Mother is?"

"Yes."

"B-But, our mother died a long time ago."

Yugi shook his head and said, "No. Your mother simply ran away this kingdom. She needed to find us and raise us in order to protect you two. She is like simply like another mother to us, but we are actually created from the goddess Bastet, herself.

"The cat god?"

Yugi sent an irritated glare at Atem for speaking so informally to his creator.

"Goddess. She is a goddess."

"I-I knew that."

Atem blushed. Yugi rolled his eyes as they continue on. They can hear shouting and wood being smashed into pieces. When they finally appear; both Atem and Yami watch in amazement.

Heba wasn't even breaking a sweat as he aims each and every blow on the wooden dummies. In less than 5 minutes; a total amount of 15 dummies are already destroyed. Heba took a stand before he let out a breath.

His training is now over.

Heba then noticed the Princes and sigh.

"I presume you told them everything."

"Yes. Everything."

Heba nodded as Yugi left to get them some water.

Heba then turns towards Yami and Atem as they just stood there; unsure what to do.

"So. I heard that you two practice sword fighting very well."

Yami and Atem nodded.

"Good." Heba then walked up to a wall before he chanted something. Two swords appeared before he grabbed them.

"You two. Here."

Heba threw them to the Princes as they caught them with ease.

Heba then summons his own sword that he previously used in the throne room.

"I want to test your strength. Attack me with everything you got."

"You against the both of us?"

Heba nodded then said, "It is better to be prepared to fight with more than one opponent. My prince."

The Princes understood as they took their stand. Heba just stood there.

"What's wrong? Not going to take a stand?"

Heba simply closed his eyes and said, "Rule number one. When challenged it is best to keep your mouth shut and watch your opponents' moves."

A vein appeared on Atem forehead as Yami narrowed his eyes in suspicion.

'What is he up to?'

Atem then made the first move as he ran up to slash Heba in half before it was blocked by his sword. Heba then kicked him in the rib as Atem gasped and fall down to regain his breathing.

"Already on your knees? My prince, you must endure it if you want to survive."

"*tsk!* W-Wasn't your first rule is to keep your mouth shut!" Atem swung his sword from the right, as Heba just simply jump up and avoided his attack again.

"Yes. But right now. You are unskill and too weak to fight against me."

"What did you say?!"

Heba narrowed his eyes before he kicked Atem on the face. A rush of wind appeared behind Heba as he quickly turns to the left to see Yami about to bring down his blade from behind.

Yami was taken aback because in less than 2 seconds; Heba jumped up and kneel Yami through the stomach as Yami immediately shut his eyes from the immense pain that went straight through his entire body. It also made Yami drop his sword as Yami clutch his stomach to the ground.

Both the Princes groaned in pain as Heba just stare at them in disapproval.

"You two still have a lot of work to do."

Just then, Yugi came back with two jars that are filled with water in his hands as he was surprised to see Yami and Atem both on the ground.

At first, Yugi simply stood there. Then he asked,

"What just happened?"
